Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1887-04-17

We have had good deal 70 say about silks
recently. Nothalf "a much as those who have
given the stock look. A birds-eys view s
sure to bring csmmepdation. It's NOT an easy
task to give the stock q thorough look me
vastness Of quantities, the variety Of styles, the
briiiiancy Of coloring that meet the gaze, are as
confusing to eur patrons as their tribute OF
Iaudstions are to US. Itwould take m any hours
10 satisfy the patient stroller, and many days
to see all that is to be seen in this department
To give this exhibition motive TO greater
interest-to make interest, curiosity. and econo-
nv an arnn-in-arm group-we give along range
Of many special prices this week. We shall
make this a week Of silks, such, perhaps, as
Richmond has not seen before.
